CK Budget Friendly Magazine Giveaway!

Hi Everyone! I'm back to share a fun giveaway from Creating Keepsakes Magazine & it's their latest speical Issue - Budget Friendly Scrapbooking.

Photobucket

The magazine is filled with fun ideas on how to scrap smartly and use the most of the products that we have. A definite issue that you must have!

And below is one of the layouts that I have published where the main focus is on the pattern papers themselves. Here I used the stationery collection from Lily Bee - and making the most of both sides of the pattern papers to create the design for my layout. I started by cutting some squares from the various pattern papers and then cutting them in half to get the triangles. Them on the back side of the same pattern papers, I punched out some circles to be used to embellish the page.

Thanks again everyone for stopping by and will be randomly selecting a winner over the weekend!

    Oooh, pretty layout. I love how you placed the paper. My favorite collection was probably American Crafts' Amy Tangerine. But it's hard to choose!

    I love your layout-- thanks for the giveaway offer! It's hard to choose; I can't just pick one: Studio Calico Memoir is one (for the colors), and October Afternoon Sarsparilla is tied with it, for the cowboy theme.

    The patterned papers are gorgeous! Without much embellishments, they definitely make a great output! And the buttons - they are efficiently making the design more creative.

    Thank you very much for sharing your beautiful layout and the great giveaway. I really cannot narrow down to just 1 favourite among the CHA Summer goodies - I love them all, but are particularly fond of the simplicity and understated elegance of PP's Nantucket, charming sweetness of EP's Victorian Garden and the glorious Lost & Found 2 from MME.
